Seasons of Brokenness

ANCHORED MEDIA NETWORK
About this episode

In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum continues her discussion of Leadership as an Identity by Crawford Loritts, diving into Chapter 6: "Seasons of Brokenness." Tatum unpacks the significance of brokenness in the life of a Christian leader, sharing her personal reflections and insights on how God uses these seasons to build humility, dependence, and strength for His glory.

Tatum also reflects on the constant pull toward pride that leaders face and offers strategies to combat it through intentional time with God, self-awareness, and a posture of humility. She encourages listeners to see brokenness as an opportunity to grow closer to God and to develop a mindset rooted in total dependence on Him.

This episode is packed with wisdom, personal testimonies, and scriptural insights, including:

  • Lessons from Philippians 3:1-21 about prioritizing Christ above all.
  • Jacob’s encounter with God and the "limp" that marked his transformation (Genesis 32).
  • A challenge to reframe seasons of brokenness as signs of God’s love and preparation for greater assignments.

If you're a leader in any capacity, this conversation will encourage and equip you to embrace God's refining process in your life.

Resources Mentioned:

  • Book: Leadership as an Identity by Crawford Loritts
  • Scripture References: Philippians 3, Psalm 42, Proverbs 16:18, Hebrews 10:31, James 4:6, Genesis 32
